WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precautions
before using the weight system.
IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This
is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.
Read all instructions before using. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property
damage sustained by or through the use of this product.
1. Read all instructions in this manual and in
the accompanying literature before using the
weight system.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the weight system are adequately informed of all precautions.
3. The weight system is intended for home use
only. Do not use the weight system in any
commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
4. Use the weight system only on a level surface. Cover the floor beneath the weight system to protect the floor.
5. Make sure all parts are properly tightened
each time you use the weight system.
Replace any worn parts immediately.
6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the weight system at all times.
7. Keep hands and feet away from moving
parts.
8. Always wear athletic shoes for foot protection.
9. Always stand on a foot plate when performing an exercise that could cause the weight
system to tip.
10. Never release the press arm, butterfly arms,
leg lever, lat bar, or nylon strap while weights
are raised. The weights will fall with great
force.
11. Make sure that the cables remain on the pulleys at all times. If the cables bind while you
are exercising, stop immediately and make
sure that the cables are on all of the pulleys.
12. Always disconnect the lat bar from the
weight system when performing an exercise
that does not use the lat bar.
13. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and begin cooling down.
14. The decals shown below have been placed
on the weight system in the location shown
on page 4. If a decal is missing or illegible,
call our toll-free Customer Hot Line at
1-800-999-3756 and order a free replacement
decal. Apply the decal
in the location shown.
Keep hands and
fingers clear of
this area.

1. Before beginning assembly, be sure that you
have read and understand the information in
the box above.
Press a 2” Square Outer Cap (51) onto each end
of the Stabilizer (5). Press a 2” Square Inner Cap
(27) into the end of the Base (4).
Insert two 5/16” x 2 3/4” Carriage Bolts (14) up
through the Stabilizer (5). Insert two 5/16” x 2 1/2”
Carriage Bolts (1) up through the Base (4).
Slide the indicated end of the Base (4) onto the
5/16” x 2 3/4” Carriage Bolts (14) in the Stabilizer
(5). Slide the Rear Upright (56) onto the Carriage
Bolts. Hand tighten a 5/16” Nylon Locknut (3)
onto each Carriage Bolt. The high side of the
bracket on the Rear Upright must be on the
side shown. Do not tighten the Nylon
Locknuts yet.
Frame Assembly
• Assembly requires two people.
• Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the
packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.
• Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
• As you assemble the weight system, make sure
all parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.
• For help identifying small parts, use the PART
IDENTIFICATION CHART at the center of this
manual.
The following tools (not included) are required
for assembly:
• Two adjustable wrenches
• One rubber mallet
• One standard screwdriver
• One Phillips screwdriver
• Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly,
and soapy water.
Assembly will be more convenient if you have a
socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end
wrenches, or a set of ratchet wrenches.
Make Things Easier for Yourself
Everything in this manual is designed to ensure
that the weight system can be assembled successfully by anyone. However, it is important to
realize that the weight system has many parts
and that the assembly process will take time.
Most people find that by setting aside plenty of
time, assembly will go smoothly.

11. During steps 11 through 24, refer to the CABLE
DIAGRAM on page 20 of this manual to verify
proper cable routing. Before beginning this section, identify the Long Cable (23) and the Short
Cable (58) by comparing the lengths of the
cables.
IMPORTANT: While assembling the cables, do
not overtighten the bolts and nuts securing
the pulleys. The pulleys must be able to turn
freely.
12. Locate the Long Cable (23). Route the Long
Cable around the indicated 3 1/2” Pulley (15)
attached to the Top Frame (55). Be sure that the
Cable is between the Pulley and the hook and
that the end of the Cable with the ball is on
the indicated side of the hook. Tighten the 3/8”
x 3 3/4” Bolt (71) and the 3/8” Nylon Locknut (not
shown).
13. Wrap the Long Cable (23) around a “V”-Pulley
(6). Attach the “V”-Pulley and a Long Cable Trap
(50) to the indicated bracket on the Front Upright
(42) with a 3/8” x 2 1/2” Bolt (7) and a 3/8” Nylon
Locknut (21). Be sure that the Long Cable Trap
is positioned to hold the Cable in place.
14. Route the Long Cable (23) around the “V”-Pulley
(6) on the Left Arm (47). Be sure that the Cable
is in the groove of the Pulley and that the
Long Cable Trap (50) is positioned to hold the
Cable in place. Tighten the 3/8” x 2 1/2” Bolt (7)
and the 3/8” Nylon Locknut (not shown).
